Chapter 10 - Chapter 10

" I can't believe it, they didn't spill a word," Female Beta Katie commented after letting the people go because of their rights.

" They are traitors, Katie. They have given their loyalty to someone else," Beta Ben growls in anger and frustration.

" We have to keep an eye on them," Luna Carol spoke standing at the door of a secret in the basement.

" Rest assured, Luna. I will hire spies to check on them twenty-four hours," Luna Carol humms in response to Beta Ben and then she orders,

" Don't call them traitors until we have solid proof as if someone hears we accusing these people as traitors that will backfire us,"

" But Luna, they are defaming our children and what else could be the reason behind their action other than distracting us from the dead bodies matter," Female Beta Katies spoke respectfully looking at Luna Carol.

" Revenge obviously... they will say targeting our children's reputation is much easier than ours. But that doesn't mean we can call them traitors... Those fools are following someone's order. Otherwise, they won't be courageous enough to do," Luna Carol points out the possibility which made the Beta couple to nodded.

" Let's go to the Alpha Office, Chris is calling us, " Luna Carol spoke as she closed the doors of the secret room. Then the three of them went to the Alpha Office.

Alpha Chris was messaging his forehead while the Gamma couple sat in the love seat looking equally tired.

" Who is behind it?" Alpha Chris asked Luna Carol regarding the post.

" They didn't say the name and we think they have pledged their loyalty to someone else," Luna Carol answered.

" That's impossible... they will never betray me... I think it's high time to tell our children to stop fooling around and care about their reputation," Alpha Chris looks around the room to everyone agrees with him.

" Ladies, you all personally interrogate all the omegas in the pack house and wherever our children hang out the most. So we can cover up their messes," Alpha Chris orders.

" Yes, Alpha," Female Beta and Gamma responded in union while Luna Carol nodded her head.

" What's the matter with dead bodies? You guys haven't told us anything," Luna Carol spoke looking at the men in the room accusingly.

"It's still the same, sweetie...," The phone ringing interrupted Alpha Chris from speaking.

" What is it, Aubrey? ... When was it? ...You are telling me this now... Okay, whatever," Alpha Chris's conversation made everyone in the room interested in knowing the matter. And before anyone could ask him, Alpha Chris explained,

" Oliver went to the underground office to find out about Blood Moon Pack... Turns out he found out,"

" How did he find out? And what did she tell him?" Gamma Susan quickly questions in shock.

" She doesn't know how he did and she can't say anything on that matter with him, remember," Alpha Chris answered which made her sigh in relief.

" Now let's talk about the business," Alpha Chris works on his computer that shows a financial statement on one of his human world companies.

" I think the venture project will increase our equity five times over than before," Alpha Chris commented.

" Alpha, this project will make enough profits that will not only cover the equity but increase our assets that will benefit the company," The men started to discuss the new project which loses the women's interest and shortly all the women left the room while discussing the plan on interrogating the omegas tomorrow.

The moment the office door was closed, the men stop talking and waited for a few minutes as they saw their mates walking away from the office door through CCTV footage.

" Aiden did you find something on Alexander?" Alpha Chris asks in anxiety showing his fear to his closest friends.

" No, there isn't any information on him. I suspect the council is protecting him and that's why they haven't helped us when we contacted them," Gamma Aiden shared his thoughts.

" I don't think that's the matter... if he is under the council protection... They could have taken action," Beta Ben points out the possibility of Aiden's suspicion being not true.

" I agree with Ben. They are not like the former council," Alpha Chris spoke and then continue.

" If it's really Alexander... then he must have spied on us for a long time to hatch a plan where we suspect the Unknown first and not him,"

" Then suspecting the Unknown could have given us the advantage of increasing our forces. Since our allies and the council could have helped relating to the matter of Unknown," Gamma Aiden mutters.

" We don't know anything about him... That makes us have a huge disadvantage while I am sure he knows everything about us," Alpha Chris growls feeling helpless in the situation.

" We have to find the spy as soon as possible... that's our only hope now," Beta Ben commented.

" If we did find the spy then we have to hide about it from our mates until we are sure it's Alexander," Alpha Chris reminds his friends again about the decision they made when they suspect Alexander. Gamma Aiden and Beta Ben nodded in agreement. Beta Ben was about to say when the sound of Anna's scream stopped him.

Beta Ben immediately looked outside the window to find his daughters are fighting like cats and dogs. While Liam and his friends are trying to separate them both, still Anna and Ava haven't stopped fighting.

" Excuse me, Alpha," Beta Ben bowed his head and left the office in anger.

" Stop fighting," Beta Ben roars when he stepped out of the pack house and walks toward his children.

Anna and Ava immediately stopped fighting hearing their Dad. And for the first time, they were scared looking at their Dad as his face was red and his expression was murderous.

" Go to your room now," Beta Ben whispered as he glared at his three children in a warning. The children instantly listen and walked towards the pack house while Liam muttered to his sisters,

" Why I am getting that look?" Which was heard by Beta Ben who growl in response causing three of them to run inside.

They met Katie on their way who just said, " I will talk to you later," and continued to walk outside the pack house. It was obvious to the children to know that Katie is going to calm Ben down.

" You are not living in my room now," Ava spoke harshly to Anna who scoffed in disbelief.

" Make me," Anna challenges Ava who was about to jump on her but Liam stood between them and started to shout at them,

" Don't you two dare to fight again! Can't you see how stressed Mom and Dad... Just be responsible once for their stake,"

" It's because of Anna, they are stressing out," Ava accuses Anna as she points her finger at her.

" My fault... God, Ava when will you grow up? Dead bodies are being found at the border of our pack and there is no clue or suspect... And you think Mom and Dad are stressing on a stupid post," Anna laughs in sarcasm.

" Enough both of you," Liam shouted once again in irritation.

" Ava, tell me what's your exact problem?" Liam questions Ava who was speechless and looking at Liam in disbelief. Receiving no answers from Ava, Liam then questions Anna,

" What happened that you kissed Aston?" Anna had the exact reaction as Ava. This made Liam clap his hands in an astounded manner and mutter,

" I can't believe it. My sisters are acting impulsive which could ruin my reputation for becoming a future Beta,"

" That's your concern," Anna spoke soon Ava complete the sentence,

" We will ruin your reputation as a future Beta,"

" Seriously, Liam since when did you care about your reputation?" Anna and Ava asked.

" Since Aston is doubting his parents that they won't make him the Alpha, or give Oliver or me the position of Gamma and Beta," Liam muttered and notice the shocking-confusing expressions of his sisters made him explain,

" Shit is happening ever since Oliver's grandaunt's body was found... We don't know much but we are trying to find out," Anna and Ava understood by 'we' meant Liam, Aston and Oliver.

" So I kindly request you two to stop behaving like children and behave like your age," After saying that Liam when to his room leaving Ava and Anna alone in the living room.

" Why did you kiss him?" Ava asked Anna in a frustrated tone.

" Why don't you ask him that?" Anna questions her back rather than answering her.

" Because I know the reason he kissed you," Ava rolls her eyes and spoke in a matter-of-fact tone,

" We share the same face so he kissed you to comfort himself thinking I was the one he is kissing,"

" What's wrong with you?" Anna was disgusted at Ava's assumption.

" You think he kissed you because he is somewhat attracted to you...," Ava shocked at her own words made her feel jealous afterwards.

" Aston loves me since childhood and that type of love never fades but rather stays for a lifetime," Anna was speechless hearing Ava and took a few moments to compose herself to speak,

" I am not attracted towards him in any way possible... And stop being so self-centred person, Ava. You are better than that... One more thing, the kiss wasn't a comforting or self-assuring one like you think but it was fierce and passionate that I can say... he didn't think of you once while we were kissing," Ava's mouth was wide open hearing Anna and couldn't believe it to be true.

" Take my advice, focus on your true mate than someone else," Anna's words were slapped to Ava's face as she didn't think of Sebastian after he dropped her at the borders since the guards didn't allow him to pass through.

Sebastian has been affectionate to Ava ever since he claimed her and in return, he never expects from her other than her love and loyalty which takes time. But seeing Sebastian working on their relationship while she isn't contributing makes her feel guilty. And now listening to Anna's words makes her feel horrible about herself that she feels she is using Aston and Sebastian at the same time when she is not.

" You don't know a shit, Anna," Ava spat and left the Beta floor as she can't stand Anna's presence right now.

Ava spend the night with other teenagers who were watching a movie in the backyard. While Anna locked herself in the room, staring at herself in the mirror as the strong girl facade she put on the whole day was fading into her real self. She couldn't hold herself more as the tears started to fall from her eyes.

To make sure, no one hears her cries Anna holds her mouth with both of her hands. The entire day at school, everyone including the teachers was looking at her in question. Even her friends and teammates asked her the question that she doesn't have an answer to it, Why did she kiss Aston? The whole night the twins didn't sleep a bit and both of them knew from today onwards their life wouldn't be the same.

" Good morning, We have called you all here because we need your help," Luna Carol spoke politely when all the omegas line up in front of her in the Luna Office. While Female Beta Katie and Female Gamma Susan stood next to Luna.

" We need to know if our children are hiding something from us and if any one of you have any idea about it. Please, share with us since it may affect the future of the pack," Luna Carol looks kindly at omegas who were shaking their heads as no expect one whose head was still.

" All of you can leave since none of you has anything to say but if you do... You could share it with me or Female Beta or Female Gamma," Hearing Luna Carol all the omegas left the room except for the one who didn't shake her head.

" Linda, please tell us what you know," Female Gamma Susan orders her kindly.

" It's my doubt and I haven't told anyone about it... I promise you that I will never share this with anyone," Omega Linda was a middle-aged woman who believe it was better to explain herself and the situation first than tell the whole matter.

" I know Linda, you will never share a rumour until it's confirmed true. Now tell us that doubt of yours," Luna Carol gave an encouraging smile which relaxed the Omega Linda.

" I think Beta's son... Liam is sleeping with a girl," Omega Linda immediately saw Female Beta Katie who was shocked.

" Tell me, all you know," Female Beta Katie muttered in shock.

" I have been assigned to clean the room of the daughters of Zetas. One of the rooms has Liam's scent along with other scents that prove he sleeps with that girl," Omega Linda looked at the Female Beta Katie again in fear of her wolf getting control. Sensing her fear, Luna Carol assures Omega Linda,

" It's okay, Linda. Female Beta have great control over her wolf. And she won't hurt you when I am here,"

" The girl is none other than Sophia who is friends with Ava," Female Beta Katie growls in satisfaction as she heard the name and left the room.

Female Beta Katie was having an internal conflict with her wolf, Kat. Her wolf, Kat was growling at her nonstop as she was furious that Sophia is seducing Liam for the Female Beta Status.

The moment Katie saw Sophia in the main hall with Ava and their other friends. Katie gladly gave control to Kat who growls at Sophia who got scared from the growling.

" Mom...," Ava tried to talk to her Mom's wolf but she was ignored. Kat holds Sophia's shoulders harsh making Sophia whimper in pain.

" How dare you try to seduce my pup?" Kat roars making the hall filled with people. While Sophia paled in fear that she couldn't open her mouth to explain herself.

" Leave my pup alone," A roaring sound made everyone in the hall look at Sophia's Mom who pushed Kat away from her daughter and stand in front of her.

" Your pup is a gold-digging....," Sophia's Mom interrupted Kat saying,

" You don't have any right to say anything to my pup. A woman like you who cheated on her mate. Giving him the worse pain ever, the pain of betrayal just because you wanted to sleep with an Alpha..." A growling sound stopped Sophia's Mom and immediately made her submit.

" Sally and Katie meet me at my office now. Everyone goes back at whatever you were doing," Luna Carol commands making everyone leave the hall.
